About this event
Join North Bethesda Village for an engaging workshop on caring for yourself while providing care to a spouse, parent, or child. In addition, the workshop will discuss how the caregiver can find respite or therapeutic support for themselves in this often all-consuming task.
We will also discuss the differences in supporting those who are homebound compared to those who are in senior care facilities, highlighting unique challenges and resources for each. This session will provide critical tools and strategies for yourself or for the caregivers you know.
Dr. Rene Laje, PhD, LICSW, LCSW-C and Yasaman Alavi, LCPC. Dr. Laje is the Director of Clinical Operations/Mental Health Services at the Jewish Social Services Agency (JSSA). Ms. Alavi is Manager of Seniors' Services at the Sante Group medical health clinic (Silver Spring).
The Zoom link will be sent to registered participants seeking virtual attendance about one week before the event. https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/mental-health-and-aging-series-session-2-caring-for-the-caregiver
